After 7 retries, I got this error. Now I'm back to being kicked out of DFU mode again :(

The device rebooting from DFU mode is just the exploit failing, nothing you can do but try again sorry. The success rate varies person to person so you might just be unlucky with the amount of tries

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly Matthew! I've been trying for the past 3 days but the iPad gets either of those error messages each time :(

I'm using a USB C dongle to connect my iPad to my Mac. Would the quality of the dongle have any impact on the reliability of the connection?

[MatthewPierson]

Quite likely, I would try connect the iPad directly to the laptop/computer, but be aware that some (Official Apple) USB-C -> Lightning cables don't work with DFU mode.

I‘m using a normal USB. But this problem still exists. I doubt this seems to be some kind of protection strategy of IOS, maybe related to the system configuration.

It worked. Try more times... @jailhousej

Here is what I did:

1. Downgrade to ios 12.4.4 first with official tools.
2. Try to exploit with Matty's code
3. Repeat 2).

Some say the downgrade is to "hit the bug" by chance, so there is a probability of failure.

Good luck.

Still not working, I tried 25 times last night. I''ll see if redownloading the IPSW will fix it.

Hello!

I found work around.

You need just kill all iTunes process(Especially iTunes helper) and run vieux again. iTunes helper start iTunes when iOS device connected and block exploit :(((

It will be great to add kill task to vieux Readme.
